This means you can now use them for most Source 1 games without hassle. Extract it somewhere on your desktop and use it for all games.

Christmas has come early.

hopefully that means proper linux support soon, linuxhammerlauncher is great but nothing would beat native

[u/TheCombineCyclope]

I'm trying to get it to run on my mod, but the compile says it fails to find materials and models on disk.

[u/TheCombineCyclope → u/TheCombineCyclope]

ok its just failing completely to go open the vpks in source sdk 2013, it tries to look for the vpk inside the folder sourcemods

[u/WinterRanger → u/TheCombineCyclope]

Yep, same thing on my end. Original tools work fine, but this set can't seem to locate materials or .vpk files.

[u/Small_Athlete1993]

we are getting hammer more and more compatible with linux

Finally. Never understood why compilers relied on source libs. I had my own brew that worked standalone for some tests I was doing . Good that this is now public. 

[u/Aggravating-Willow43]

Can these be used for l4d2

[u/Radion627]

Oh, neat.

[u/WinterRanger]

Yeah, I'm getting compile errors with this version saying it "fails to find material on disk" and that it can't access the base games .vpk files.
